Subject: [PATCH] null_blk: Handle null_add_dev() failures properly
Git-commit: 9b03b713082a31a5b90e0a893c72aa620e255c26
Patch-mainline: v5.7-rc1
References: git-fixes

If null_add_dev() fails then null_del_dev() is called with a NULL argument.
Make null_del_dev() handle this scenario correctly. This patch fixes the
following KASAN complaint:

null-ptr-deref in null_del_dev+0x28/0x280 [null_blk]
